Our team of lawyers, economist and legal advisers specialise in Property Law, Conveyancing for buying and selling which includes assistance throughout the whole procedure.
Our objective is to make all the legalities and transactions easy for you, making sure you’re informed every step of the way and giving you a comprehensive and professional service.

Your language

We speak English, Dutch, French, Russian, German and of course Spanish.
Each one of our clients is treated as an individual, with the respect and professionalism required. We are continually improving our methods to respond to your needs.
When you’re buying a property, we will start by revising the purchase contract, making the searches and important checks in the Land Registry, Catastral Registry and of course the Town Hall. We check with all corresponding administrations and the utility companies to make sure the property is fully legal and free of debts.

Investigate

We contact the present owner/builder for any queries and make any arrangements necessary to receive the required information. Once you are ready and we are happy we will accompany you to the Notary, carry out with the translation of Title Deeds and complete the formalities.
We will carry out all changes of ownership and arrange direct debit payments for contracts registered to the property. i.e. water, electricity, gas, community owners etc. Followed by the Registration of Title Deeds and Tax payments.
